Diseño de un sistema contra incendio para una subestación eléctrica con transformador de potencia.

Abstract

The main objective of the present titling work is to design a fire protection system for an electrical substation, analyze and design the fire protection system for an electrical substation, there are several factors such as the short circuit that can cause excessive heating and explosions which give rise to possible fires. The bibliographical research method is used because it compiles documented studies about characteristics of materials prone to inflammation and fires that cause explosion and fire, as well as the descriptive and analytical method to characterize and also analyze different methods of protection against fire this time in the power transformer of an electrical substation. As a result of the present titration work, a Fire Protection System (FPS) design is outlined for a 10 MVA power transformer which consists of a pumping system and sprinklers, the sizing of its main elements is done with calculations and the FPS plan complies with national standards such as the international standard NFPA 20.
